Re: 2024 Top 50 Players

  • 1. QB Leslie Jacques (Notre Dame) Last Year: 15th

  • Slowing moving his way up the ranks, Notre Dame's start QB Leslie Jacques penciled his name in the record books in 2023. The captain of the league's most dynamic offense, Jacques has been the driving force for the team's 56 game win streak and four straight National Titles. This will be his final season in South Bend as he hoped to prove that the former regime wasn't the secret to the team's success.

  • 2. QB Jonathan Demartini (Tennessee) Last Year: 1st

  • The "GOAT" as many will refer to him as, Jon Demartini is always in the Heisman discussion. Take away his best weapon and he'll find another guy to get the ball to. Demartini has been the league's most prolific player by a large margin. Two Heisman trophies and many more accolades, it's just a matter of time til he gets the call from the Hall.

  • 3. CB Marcelino Roush (Oklahoma St.) Last Year: 19th

  • The Jim Thorpe Award winner a season ago, Roush is starting to really come into is his own as an upperclassman. Hauling in 23 int's in the last two season his ball skills have become more consistent. You'd be hardpressed to find a better combination of cover men with him and teammate Juan Hoke. Oklahoma St boasts one of the best defenses in the NCAA and Roush has always been one of the reasons why.

  • 4. QB Douglas Seward (Alabama) Last Year: Unranked

  • It's not easy to go from obscurity to the mountain top in just one short year but if there's a player that surprised the masses more than Alabama's Douglass Seward i'd call BS. Seward, a career journeyman, finally got the lead job when former teammate Wesley Terry graduated. Seward exploded on the scene and never slowed down. Throwing for 7.500 yards and 65 TD's to go along with a 120 QB Rating. With the explosion in the passing game the Bama offense catapulted to #2 in the NCAA and their first 10 win season in history.

  • 5. WR Charles Shackleford (Tennessee) Last Year: Unranked

  • After Hall of Fame WR William Brock declared for the NFL Tennessee had a void to fill and Charles Shackleford was up to the task. In a league of the devaluation of #1 WR's Shackleford managed to catch just under 2,000 yards and 19 TD's. He may not be as well rounded as Brock but Shack brings gamebreaking speed and explosiveness that is on a different level. You put his talents with a player like Demartini and it's not a surprise that you have perhaps the best 1-2 combination in the land.

  • 6. RB Terry Pauli (Oklahoma St.) Last Year: 26th

  • Joining Washington's Myles Gaskin as the only two-time Doak Walker Award winner, Pauli seems to be hitting his stride in his 8th season. He's tall and lanky for a RB and just glides through the holes with creative vision. Coming off his third straight 1,000 yards season Pauli is equally adept to catching the ball and is one of the best all around weapons in college football.

  • 7. CB David Orange (Alabama) Last Year: 3rd
  • Despite starting the season a little slowly for his own standards, Orange compiled a very solid and high level statistical season in 2023. His interceptions were slightly below is average over the last couple years but that could be a result of getting thrown at 62 less times than the previous season. He still managed to garner 1st Team All-American honors and still thought of as the top defensive back in football.

  • 8. CB John Hodge (Syracuse) Last Year: 6th

  • The best player on the league's second best team last year was the "blanket" known as John Hodge. Hodge is a confident playmaker that continues to be the league's most impressive ball hawk. His 33 ints over the last three years is tops in the country and he's just entering his prime. Hodge is arguably the most physical and confident defensive back around yet he always produces and lives up to the hype.

  • 9. QB Randy Williams (Oklahoma St.) Last Year: 4th

  • If having a third Oklahoma St. player in the top ten isn't impressive enough, the Cowboy's QB has been in the discussion for best QB throughout most of his career. Williams struggled mightily out of the gate only to get on track and produce one of his best seasons of his career. His 52 passing TD's was a career high coupled with another 6,000+ passing season, Williams is establishing himself as one of the greats. With the talent around him the only visible void is that title trophy that been just out of his grasp.

  • 10. LB John Chaplin (Syracuse) Last Year: Unranked

  • The league's first LB to crack the top 10, Syracuse's John Chaplin has established himself as one of the more dominant defensive players in Syracuse history. Chaplin combines aggressive pass rushing and the willingness to drop in coverage that not many other players at his position can reproduce. Averaging just under 10 sacks a season, Chaplin was already established as a pass rusher throughout his career. In 2023 he picked off 3 passes and became the player the 'Cuse staff hoped he would become. If there's one aspect of his game that can be improved it's his sure tackling. his tendency to go for the big hit or knockout blow has held him back when it comes to being an all-time great.
